- When it comes to riding with a friend there are a number of options. We have our UT Custom Tandem or you could look into getting a side-by-side, but what happens if you want to go solo? Our UTCustom tandem coupler allows you to hook up two or more delta trikes to ride with a friend, AND you can ride solo when you feel like some alone time.

I see a world’s record breaker coming on. “Longest trikes in the world”…
I love this idea...hope each rider can bring backpacks along
Awesome custom work! Good to see a shop thinking "outside the box". Nice work!
I could imagine a hundred of these hooked together, looking like a giant mechanical centipede, moving across the Australian Outback.
Good job, suggest further improvement. Also make a gadget on the back of trike to store the front wheel; in case a rider wants to get off to another path during middle of the ride.
I’m so impressed with your business.
Looks like a load of fun.
Awesome!!
Okay yes this is absolutely fabulous. What about those of us with a tadpole configuration? My wife and I like to ride but she is much slower than I, to hook these two together would be fantastic. Keep up the good work guys and keep thinking outside the box.
Much more complicated to connect two tadpole trikes together, but we have made tadpole coupling systems before. The preferred solution is to add pedal assist to the slower trike so both riders can stay together.
You guys are amazing unbelievably amazing you guys are setting the bar very high or other shops... I really enjoy your video really I do I tell everybody about you guys
great job!!!
hi that is the coolest trike i have ever seen
Does it make it possible to go faster as you connect more bikes together, as when race cars "draft" closely behind each other?
This is insanely cool. I just wanna make my own one now lol
I like it.
Nice
This is great, for The Philippine countrysides..
🌋very nice video
Thank you!
Do you make couplers for tadpole trikes?
Nice! What's the size of that rod end ball joint? I have a DIY project that's also going to use ball joints to take similar loads. I'd like to get an idea of a safe size.
I hope someone gave the guy running the drill a safety lecture. I worked at Cat for over 30 years and we had guys with missing fingers, hands and arms from wearing too loose of clothing and getting caught in the machinery. Had one guy who thought he locked his radial drill in place and turned his back on it and he ended up 3 isles over in about 40 pieces. Not a nice picture.
G'day can you do the same with the front wheeh type ?.
I first saw this concept on the RANS trike but I've always wondered how well does it track around corners if you have a long chain of 4 or more trikes?
I've done cornering all my life. In tandem- with trailed attached. Delta-trike, with trailer attached. Delta-trike-tandem with trailer is on the menu. With tandem acts ok. 2 delta's cornering is easy. You only must know where your rear-end is going. Same principle as with trailer, only little bit longer.
This just looks insanely fun! I could see two or three deltas hooked up on a boardwalk. Question for you guys: would there be a way to mount the front wheels on the "train" to carry with you in the event the riders want to detach and ride separately?
Sure. we can make a mount for the front wheel to attach.
Rans used to have that made on all there trikes. Have seen as many as 12 in a line.
Nice!
This is an awesome way to have fun but how do you balance the power of the trikes so that you’re not burning up the battery power of just one of the trikes❓
I do have 2 deltas. The first is 13 years old Sinner Comfort, from Netherlands. Seconds is basically brand new Sun ax-3x with under-steering. The only drawback with USA-made trike, which is absolutely mind blowing trike anyway is the lack of diffirential. Only right wheel is going, which make any attempt of hauling anything. Even myself on uphill is impossible. SUN AX-X3 is very sturdy under-stearing controlled trike. The only drawback is the missing diffirential. However, i've hooked up the SUN to the Sinner, which has the diffirential and it works great.
This was great video. I wonder what would it cost to make coupler for the SUN AX-X3?
would love a coupler for my ELF to tow my trikes lol it's hard having so many adult trikes and velomobiles
Well. You could........ Send one to me :) That way i'll ease your pain to own too much trikes.
I would like to hook up a Delta behind a regular fat bike (I have a Surface 604 Boar ebike), Have you ever done that? Also, would it be possible to add a hub motor to the non geared rear wheel of the Delta?
Wow what won't you guys come up with?
I recently picked up two used Easy Racer deltas. My husband has the HD and I have the AX. I've seen trikes in a train before, so how is this different from the standard(?) connection? I don't remember it done with the HD, though...
Flexibility is the key, so the following trike's fork can pivot as needed to handle turns and ups and downs. Greenspeed makes a coupler that works on their Anura, but won't work on any other trike and with most trikes being different enough they each require a couple that can mount to their rear axle.
@@UtahTrikesOnline OK, I see that. Thanks!
Are you into design of bicycle RV? There could be a market as more people are into bicycle touring.😊
As a parent who cycles commutes with my kids and rides a quad with your axle, do a different version which would allow me to attach my child's bike to the rear of my axle. Should work fine if you eliminate the left to right movement.
At the time stamp 0:42 , the trike with the big fat white tires. What kind of trike is that. I want to e-mail you about it.

They just went full centipede!
I like the idea but for towing a trailer camper.
I'm planning to use my trailer for camping as well. I'm custom to heavy haul with bike (tandem, delta trike) even on uphill. My age is start to piss me off as we all know, age doesn't come alone :) I have to add 500W front wheel motor to my Sinner-delta to ease the transition.
find a way for a solar panel on top of the camper.
Pretty cool, but my buddies are too lazy for that!! I'd be doing all the pedaling!!😂
Yes, that is a very real concern!
make some new friends j. m. o
That is why you need to be in the back holding a whip. ;)
If you are making small customized parts for personalizing trikes/quads, may be you should consider 3D printing, such as “Desktop Metal” and one other German company BIgRap as an example. I think this could be a win win situation for quality of parts, for you (productivity & profits) and for customers. Just a though as I see more of your videos and see that you not only sell recumbent bikes/trikes/quads but modify and customize them in-house putting your ideas and technical expertise.
I'm trying to attach a Kettwiesel to the back of a Scorpion FS20. I'm thinking of a bracket that attaches to the uppermost seat skewer and the rack attachment screws just above. Then mounting the Hase coupler to it. It's going to lift the front of the Kett about 5 inches which isn't too bad. The biggest problem will be heal strike in a tight turn. What do you think? Any ideas greatly appreciated.
P.S. I don't want to go the route of Hase's attachment to a DF bike due to cost and I dont find it an elegant solution.
The main concern would be adding to much lateral force to the Scorpion's rear swing arm during turns. You'll want to make sure that the pivot you connect to the fork of the Kett can pivot in all directions.
@@UtahTrikesOnline Thanks for the quick reply. I think I've got all three axes covered by using the Hase coupler and the Kett's steering. My biggest worry is getting heal strike and hence putting lateral force on the swingarm. I'll let you know how I get on. Thanks again.
Looks fun, but who does the braking?
The front trike has front and rear brakes. The rear trike still has their rear brakes.
Imagine a delta trike conga line..
I’m interested in a trailer. Been scouring the internet for years searching for the perfect bike trailer. Why are they so elusive? I want a bike trailer that will haul up to 6 adults.
Sounds like you are looking for something custom. Shoot us an email to trikes@utahtrikes.com and we'll see what we can come up with.
Why don't you use a quick release skewer?
Our new version does.
@@UtahTrikesOnline
Good.
Make a new video showing it.
*** Y E S !!!!!!! **** I WANT ONE Or THREE !!!! OMG This is Totally AWESOME !!!! :-D
PLEASE TAKE MY $$$$$ !!!
* * * HEY UT!!! Could I Open Up a Bike Shop here in Central West Coast Florida and Sell YOUR UTAH TRIKES ? !!! Please (8~D
I don’t see Hase trikes at your place.
I want you to design me a pull behind sleeper.
I think the record is 93 Kettwiesels joined together.
I am going to be building a competitive sand trike. 100% human powered. It may have several people riding. I'd like some advice.
How is your project coming along?
i like the girl
Amazing. Just shorten the forks of the trailing trike so it doesn't sit so high.
Or, make slide where fork can be set freely about 1-15 cm of height.
Another option is a sail
We have actually had several customers who have added sails to their trikes. I guess it really depends on where you ride if that is feasible.
I hope Ashley pays you. You seem to be having a bit too much fun on the job. There must be some “work” involved right?
Agreed. Always nice to enjoy your work.
When you enjoy of your work.. You become a god! :)
SORRY I WILL BUILD MY OWN HITCH WITH GREASE-ABLE PIVOT AND A THRU SOLID AXIAL PIN FOR THE FORK TO REST IN.
I recently tried to by a bike from here. The customer service was bad. The whole time I was talking to him I felt like I was bothering him or he didn't want to talk. Surprisingly unpleasant.
Nice, no more low quality Chinese bike.
Looks dumb but cool
Ffs can I have more footage of the bike instead of some dude filling the screen talking nonsese?
so much talking! So boring,, stopped watching
awww
Talking heads. I fully understand. Needs a better editor. Show the stuff not the talker.
